NFL 2008 discussion thread

I was worried the Lions were going to beat the Vikings for a while.

I was rooting for the Lions. I need them and the Bengals to start winning so the Lambs can lose out and get the overall number one pick.

Beautiful ! Steelers score 17 points in about the last 7 minutes to beat the Cowboys ! Romo is overrated. Puts up great numbers but can't get through in the clutch.

The Cowboys are finally falling apart.

Yes! I want to see the Cards host the NFC Championship game, and I was love the outrage of the purists (tools) who hate that either the 9-7 Cards or the 9-6-1 Eagles make the Super Bowl.

On that note....Go Chargers!!!!!!!!!!

FLY EAGLES FLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hopefully we fly all the way to Tampa Bay!!

I love it!

NFC championship is The Iggles vs The Cards.

AFC championship is The Ravens vs Da Stillers.

Man, get the ambulances ready for that AFC game.

And who could've predicted this NFC matchup?

Somebody with $100 predicting this months....or even weeks ago would have a much fatter wallet right now!

Baltimore & Arizona must win !

As long as the beagles don't win - I hope they beagles fly like icarus next sunday!!!!!!

The Titans/Ravens game was great entertainment.

Normally, I despise defensive games because they're boring; three yards and a cloud of dust and all that.

But that game was freakin' intense. Lots of chippy fights after practically every play and lots of helmets rolling around on the field.

I sure hope Da Stillers can provide as much fun this coming week ( and I think they will ).

i see both games as blowouts

Eagles 31
Cardinals 17

Steelers 23
Rvens 10

You may be right. Normally I would expect the Steelers/Ravens game to be a defensive struggle ending in a 13-10 score. But the Ravens have got to be running on fumes after playing so many weeks in a row. Wasn't their bye week way back in October or something?

I don't know, I think they'll be more competitive than that.

I've got a good feeling about the Cardinals, think they might just surprise McNabb and company.

That Ravens/Steelers matchup could end up being one of those 10-7 type games.

edit* - the Ravens had their bye week in Week 2.

I knew it was a long time ago. They must be exhausted.

The way the Eagles are playing right now I think its tough for anyone to beat them. They have been playing great football for about 7 weeks now. The Cardinals have been only doing it 2 weeks. Yes they beat the Falcons but that was a Rookie qb and they shut the run down. The Panthers came off of a bye and werent playing there best ball. Six turnovers from Delhomme will never happen again and if a team turns the ball over that many times they will never win. One thing the Eagles do is protect that ball. I see the Cardinals going to a more pass protect offense which will dictate what the Eagles do defensely. The Eagles have the personnel to shutdown Fitz and a 50% Boldin. James wont be a factor in the running game as the eagles were rank 4th in run defense.

I just hope its a blowout, I am not one who likes nailbiters.
